Overrides
View SourceGenerateControlPoints(float)
Automatic generation of control points. Generated control points which result in a smooth join between the splines of each segment.
The generating algorithm is as follows:
For a given knot point K[N], find the vector that bisects K[N-1],[N] and [N],[N+1].
Calculate the tangent vector by taking the normal of this bisector.
The in control point is the length of the preceding segment back along this bisector multiplied by the curvature.
The out control point is the length of the succeeding segment forward along this bisector multiplied by the curvature.
Declaration
public void GenerateControlPoints(float curvature)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| float | curvature | The curvature of the spline. 0 gives straight lines between the knots, negative values means the spline contains loops, positive values up to 0.5 result in a smooth curve, positive values between 0.5 and 1 result in looped curves where the loops are not distinct (i.e., the curve appears to be non-continuous), positive values higher than 1 result in looped curves. |
GetControlPoint(uint)
An accessor for the control points.
Declaration
public Vector3 GetControlPoint(uint index)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| uint | index | The index of the control point. |
Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Vector3 |
GetPoint(uint)
An accessor for the interpolation points.
Declaration
public Vector3 GetPoint(uint index)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| uint | index | The index of the interpolation point. |
Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Vector3 |
GetPointCount()
Gets the number of interpolation points in the path.
Declaration
public uint GetPointCount()Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| uint | The number of interpolation points in the path. |
Sample(float, Vector3, Vector3)
Sample path at a given progress. Calculates the position and tangent at that point of the curve.
Declaration
public void Sample(float progress, Vector3 position, Vector3 tangent)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| float | progress | A floating point value between 0.0 and 1.0. |
| Vector3 | position | The interpolated position at that progress. |
| Vector3 | tangent | The interpolated tangent at that progress. |
